[0011] here, the elastic housing of term " tire " expression any kind, no matter whether it inflates, and no matter whether it is subjected to interior pressure in use.
Background technology
[0012] existence in chamber that is positioned at the tire running lower face and leads at least one side of tyre surface has given tire favourable characteristic, especially when the maximum ga(u)ge of its tyre surface surpasses 15mm.This chamber helps to cool off the tire shoulder (passing through draught effect) of tire and has improved its durability thus.Because they appear at tread surface when the wearing and tearing of tyre surface take place, so they have also proposed the pattern of tyre surface development, firmly grasp on wetland, snowfield and ice face helping.
[0013] allow the mould of the molded tyre surface that has a this chamber known already.Can be divided into two kinds of methods: movable pin is thrust in the uncured rubber composition, the mixture of tyre surface to be formed is flowed and surround this pin.
[0014] U.S. Pat 1604450 is examples of first method: it has described a kind of use of movable pin, after uncured tire is placed in the mould and the side of should the activity pin before the tyre vulcanization axially thrusting tyre surface.This pin thorn is fashionable necessary indeformable, also do not move simultaneously, and do not make uncured squeegee action, so this is restricted the geometry of pin and thickness (mechanical strength).
[0015] mould of corresponding second method can be at molded stage not mobile pin during molding cavity.U.S. Pat 6408910 has been described a kind of mould, and the pin of this mould for good and all is fixed to the housing that is used for the moulding of tyres sidewall.When molded, the interior pressure in the uncured tire that applies by film-so plastically deformable-the increased external diameter of uncured tire.The institute that this stage that is called as " shaping " forces the material that constitutes tyre surface to be filled up in the mould has living space, thereby produces the final tyre surface that constitutes the chamber.In order to take out tire from mould, housing is axially separated, to allow taking out pin from tyre surface.This method has a defective: because it must meet the thickness of desired form at least, so it only can be used in shaping stage and more significantly makes, and it comprises the chamber under the running surface.
[0016] present, the trend on the industry is the degree of attempting to limit as much as possible shaping.Here it is, and patent application EP1232852 discloses the reason of the mould of another kind of type, and it is corresponding to first method.This mould that proposes comprises fan-shaped part of a series of crowns and the fan-shaped part of a series of tire shoulder that is designed to molded radial cavity or groove, and described tire shoulder scallop branch comprises the pin that is designed to molded axial cavity, and this two serial district can move radially.The layout of pin makes pin arrange that diameter of a circle thereon increases on behaviour area before the placement in place of uncured shell, thereby can reduce the crystallized ability of shell.Proposed should divide with the crown scallop to contact, be applied to pressure on the pin thereby resist material to be molded at the stage pin that radially thrusts mixture.Therefore can use long and thinner pin, it is flexible under the pressure of uncured mixture.
[0017] these two kinds of methods in use all are proved to be effective; Yet the tyre surface of Zhi Zaoing can have not desired characteristics like this.In fact, no matter select which kind of method: pin radially thrust or the mixture of the inevitable either side with pin of the formation of the Radial Flow of mixture, final tyre surface flows, and be formed on the composition surface that extends between the die face of tyre surface of the surface of pin and moulding of tyres.Especially since during molded sensitive to pollution, so the use of the mould of this area the present situation has produced perpendicular to the composition surface that proves friable surface.

[0034] Fig. 8-the 11st is according to the generalized section of the modification of pin of the present invention.
The specific embodiment
[0035] Fig. 1 has shown the mould of the present invention 1 that is in closed construction.This figure is schematic: especially, only depicted the part with molded relevant mould 1; Omitted the enhancing part in order to know.In order to understand the function of said elements better, the appropriate section of the tire 10 that mould 1 obtains also is illustrated.Along seeing the fan-shaped part 2 of crown in this phantom on plane of the turning cylinder that comprises tire, the fan-shaped part of this crown has projection 3, with the chamber or the groove 11 of the tyre surface 12 that is used for moulding of tyres 10.The fan-shaped part 2 of this crown can move radially with respect to housing 4, and described housing is the sidewall 13 of moulding of tyres 10 in known manner.The fan-shaped part 2 of crown has the pin 5 that is designed to form chamber 18, and described chamber extends axially and lead to a side 17 of tyre surface 12 in the lower face of travelling.This pin 5 can move axially, thereby allows tire to take out from mould.
[0036] Fig. 2 has schematically shown the radial section AA ' of mould 1 among Fig. 1, and it has the pin 50 of prior art.The mixture 14 that this pin 50 is configured tyre surface 12 centers on.The part of the fan-shaped part 2 of crown also can be in sight.Running surface 15 is on the interface between tyre surface 12 and the fan-shaped part 2 of crown.
[0037] pin 50 of prior art does not produce asymmetric mixing logistics during chamber 18 molded: the velocity field of characterization mixing logistics is with respect to an axis symmetry, and this axis normal is in the die face 16 of molded running surface 15 and pass point 60 away from the pin of this face.Therefore, walk around the die face 16 that the composition surface 30 that forms between the mixture part that pin 50 flows is substantially perpendicular to molded running surface 15 during molded.The minimum range 20 of separating between the surface that its length is substantially equal to pin 50 and the face 16.
[0038] Fig. 3 has shown the schematic cross-section AA ' of mould 1 among Fig. 1, and it is adaptive according to pin 51 of the present invention.This pin 51 illustrates the notion of " outline portion ".In selected cross section, can easily see the point 61 and the point 71 of the profile of pin 51, and two outline portions 151 and 251 that connect these points, its mid point 61 from the die face 16 of molded running surface 15 farthest, point 71 is nearest from this face.In this case, the length difference between first and second outline portions equals 20% of part 251 length.
[0039] Fig. 4-the 7th, the schematic diagram of the radial section AA ' of mould 1 among Fig. 1, it represents that pin 50 of the present invention thrusts in the mixture 14 that constitutes tyre surface 12.This order is effective for mould that has shaping when surrounding pin 52 (when mixture 14 motion and) or the mould (pin 52 motions and thrust in the mixture 14) in this case, that do not have a shaping.
[0040] Fig. 4 has shown the radial section AA ' of the mould 1 when pin 52 beginnings contact with the mixture 14 that constitutes tyre surface 12.This contact occurs in point 62 places of pin 52, and this is from the die face 16 of molded running surface 15 (Fig. 7) farthest.
[0041] the identical radial section AA ' of mould 1 after Fig. 5 has shown for a moment.The point 62 of pin 52 has thrust in the mixture 14, mixes logistics 41 and 42 thereby produce two.The geometry of pin 52 produces asymmetric stream as can be seen: mixture part 41 is than the mixture part 42 that flows around pin 52 at opposite side approaching face 16 quickly.Should be noted that to make and flow asymmetricly that this pin tilts with respect to the direction of vertical mold face 16 by pin with symmetry axis 80 (dotted line among Fig. 4).For selected oblique angle, the difference between outline portion 152 and 252 the length is 10% of part 152 length.If identical pin 52 is installed to mould and make axle 80 perpendicular to face 16, part 152 and 252 equal in length and this pin can not make the mixing logistics 41 and 42 of walking around it produce asymmetric so.
[0042] Fig. 6 has shown and has mixed the identical section AA ' that the mould 1 when converging again after the pin 52 is walked around in logistics 41 and 42.The point again 43 that constitutes the initial point of composition surface 32 (Fig. 7) does not overlap (Fig. 4) with the point 72 near die face 16.
[0043] Fig. 7 has shown the identical section AA ' of the mould 1 when pin 52 is finished in the mixture 14 that thrusts formation tyre surface 12.Mixture 14 surrounded pin 52 and fill up pin 52 and the face 16 of molded running surface 15 between the space.The part 41 and 42 of walking around the mixture that pin 52 flows is converged and is formed composition surface 32, and this composition surface extends to the face 16 of molded running surface 15 from the surface of pin 52.The asymmetric fact that flows has produced the oblique angle (α) of composition surface 32.In trace length that measure between the surface of pin 52 and the die face 16, should surface 32 on the section, leave the minimum range 22 of face 16 greater than the surface of pin 52.
[0044] Fig. 8 has shown the schematic radial section AA ' of mould 1 among Fig. 1, and it is adaptive according to another pin 53 of the present invention.Pin 53 by geometry in particular makes and flows asymmetricly, and this pin does not have symmetry axis on selected section.The die face 16 that connects the molded running surface 15 of distance farthest point 63 and the length difference between the outline portion 153 and 253 of nearest point 73 equal 10% of part 253 length.The asymmetric fact that flows has produced the oblique angle (β) of composition surface 33, and this composition surface is formed to be flow through between the mixture part of pin 53 during molded.In trace length that measure between the surface of pin 53 and the die face 16 of molded running surface 15, should surface 33 on the section, the minimum range 23 of separating greater than the surface 16 of the surface of pin 53 and molded running surface 15.
[0045] Fig. 9 has schematically shown the radial section AA ' of mould 1 among Fig. 1, and it is adaptive according to the 4th pin 54 of the present invention.As the situation of front, the geometry by pin 54 makes that to mix logistics asymmetric.This pin has the shape near pin 52, and difference is that one of them outline portion has the axial ridges 91 and the groove 92 of layout parallel to each other, 3mm and have the high triangular cross-section of 2mm at interval between them.The die face 16 that connects the molded running surface 15 of distance farthest point 64 and the length difference between the outline portion 154 and 254 of nearest point 74 equal 10% of part 154 length.The asymmetric fact that flows has produced the oblique angle (γ) of composition surface 34, and this composition surface is formed to be flow through between the mixture part of pin 54 during molded.In trace length that measure between the surface of pin 54 and the die face 16 of molded running surface 15, should surface 34 on the section, the minimum range 24 of separating greater than the surface 16 of the surface of pin 54 and molded running surface 15.
[0046] Figure 10 has schematically shown the radial section AA ' of mould 1 among Fig. 1, and it is adaptive according to the 5th pin 55 of the present invention.Compare with above-mentioned example, it is asymmetric that the mixing logistics here is not that the geometry owing to pin 55 causes, but by rotation pin 55 during molded.This rotation causes velocity field to become asymmetric: by rotatablely moving of pin 55, the mixture of the pin of flowing through is not that to be accelerated be exactly to be decelerated in its motion.Therefore, the composition surface 35 that forms between the mixture part of pin 55 of flowing through during molded tilts.In trace length that measure between the surface of pin 55 and the die face 16 of molded running surface 15, should surface 35 on the section, the minimum range 25 of separating greater than the surface 16 of the surface of pin 55 and molded running surface 15.
[0047] Figure 11 has schematically shown the radial section AA ' of mould 1 among Fig. 1, and it is adaptive according to pin 56 of the present invention, and described pin is installed like this, makes it axially and radially moving with respect to mould 1 with the direction that radially becomes (6) angle.The direction of pin translational motion is represented by arrow.In case pin has passed through and formed composition surface 36, wherein said composition surface tilts with respect to the plane of the die face 16 of vertical molded running surface 15, and the mixing logistics through the cylindrical pin both sides during pin thrusts mixture converges again.The minimum range 26 that the length of the trace of this composition surface 36 is always separated greater than the surface of pin 56 and face 16 in the section.
[0048] may be except the end of pin, on whole pin almost, when asymmetric, can obtain satisfied result when mixing logistics.
[0049] although Fig. 1 has shown the pin 5 of molding cavity 18, wherein said chamber extends to a half width of tire from the side of the tyre surface 12 of tire 10, is to be understood that described chamber 18 can extend beyond the middle part of tyre surface.Also it is contemplated that shorter chamber.
[0050] same, be to be understood that no matter want on only side of tyre surface molding cavity or on two sides molding cavity, can use principle of the present invention.Chamber on opposite side can be arranged symmetrically or asymmetricly.The fan-shaped part 2 of crown can cover the whole width of tyre surface or only cover its part.
[0051] depends on result that the finished product tyre surface is required and determine the quantity of pin 5 and its geometry accurately.Each fan-shaped part can have several pins, and is perhaps opposite, and some fan-shaped parts can not have pin at all.
